Reviewers mostly say Stride makes running and walking more engaging by turning ordinary routes into a competitive reason to go farther, explore new areas, and defend territory. Users also praise simple syncing with Garmin and Apple Health, which lets them track activity without carrying the app on every outing. The main complaints are repeated and serious: cheating appears to undermine fair play, customer support is often described as slow or absent, and some users report tracking glitches, lost routes, and occasional frustration over pricing.
